Russian occupiers detain another Crimean Tatar

One more Crimean Tatar has been detained in Russian-occupied Crimea, according to activists of the Crimean Solidarity group.

"In Simferopol, the Fountains neighborhood, a search has been conducted since 04.00 on Istidat Street (near the mosque) in the house of Mustafa Kalafatov. He has been immediately driven away. Now they are looking for forbidden literature and weapons," activists said.
